• Ye Lin concluded Chu Yunxiao’s fortune would surge in the Central Region and decided to follow them there.

Ye Lin and Tang Qingru hid as Demon Beasts searched the island for a human woman in red who had broken in and escaped after being badly injured. The island was sealed, leaving Ye Lin worried that the search might expose them, and Tang Qingru suspected the woman was a prodigy from the Star River Cosmos.

• Tang Qingru said her intuition suggested the woman in red was a prodigy from the Star River Cosmos.

• Li Wushuang recovered from her injuries and damaged Primordial Spirit within minutes, astonishing Ye Lin.
• Li Wushuang explained that the Heavenly Heart Realm had formed from the inner world of a fallen Daluo Golden Immortal, whose Daoist essence had nourished it.

Li Unrivaled revealed that killing more than five cultivators in the mysterious world caused a substance to assimilate their Primordial Spirit, eventually turning them into mindless monsters. After agreeing to cooperate with Ye Lin, she asked how she could help with his plan.

• Li Unrivaled explained that the world had formed from a Daluo Golden Immortal's corpse and that killing a sixth cultivator caused a strange substance to corrupt the killer's Primordial Spirit.

• Li Unrivaled asked Ye Lin to explain his plan and offered to help, since she could not safely leave the island.

• Kong Tian forced a Causality Barrel into Liu Feng’s mouth and explained that it would activate in half an hour and could not be removed by anyone below the True Immortal realm.

• An enraged shout rang out as the Blazing Fire Demon Race’s powerful figures gathered around them.

Ye Lin escaped the Demon Race through an unstable teleportation array, but the journey shattered his meridians and reduced his cultivation. He woke beneath a blue sky, unsure whether he had reached the Central Region, and met a beautiful woman in a purple dress.

• Ye Lin unleashed his full power and killed the Demon Race cultivators surrounding him.
